No set time exists: Leukemia (a cancer in which certain white blood cells over reproduce healthy concentrations), like all forms of cancer, represents a failure of the person's immune system function to prevent cancer before ever detectable by current means. Because understanding all the complexity remains poor, there are no cures, only treatments of varying efficacy, varying widely individual to individual.
